Composite Geometries

Composite geometries are classes that implement their geometry methods using the geometry methods of their constituent geometries based on a certain type of logic. More...

Classes
class	EGS_CDGeometry
	A "combinatorial dimension" geometry. More...
class	EGS_EnvelopeGeometry
	An envelope geometry class. More...
class	EGS_FastEnvelope
	An envelope geometry class. More...
class	EGS_StackGeometry
	A stack of geometries. More...
class	EGS_TransformedGeometry
	A transformed geometry. More...
class	EGS_RadialRepeater
	A radial geometry replicator. More...
class	EGS_Lattice
	A Bravais, cubic, and hexagonal lattice geometryA geometry which embeds a lattice of one geometry (named subgeometry below) into one region of a second geometry (named base geometry). This geometry effectively recurses the subgeometry at every position defined by a Bravais, cubic, or hexagonal lattice. As such, you can model an infinite amount of subgeometries (e.g., region 0 of egs_space) and the only slow down to your simulation would depend on how many subgeometries you would expect over a particle track.

Detailed Description

Composite geometries are classes that implement their geometry methods using the geometry methods of their constituent geometries based on a certain type of logic.

Composite geometries can be build from elementary geometries or from other composite geometries. Examples of composite geometries include N-dimensional geometries, envelope geometries, geometry unions, etc.
